The F Word

Episode 1 of the F Word and it's national vegan week so Gordon marks the occasion by cooking lentils, carrots, leeks, celeriac and fois gras. Gordon's children realise that a turkey is just for Christmas not for life when they buy live turkeys to rear and slaughter for Christmas dinner. Ex-Eastenders star Martine McCutcheon learns how to sharpen a knife and Gordon learns to 'keep it simple, stupid' when he challenges comedian Al Murray to make the best bread and butter pudding.

In the second show, Joan Collins visits The F Word. Famously ejected from Gordon's restaurant Aubergine along with food critic A A Gill seven years ago, this is the first time the two have met since. Gordon's mum Helen challenges her son to trounce her favourite recipe for apple pudding. And meanwhile there's trouble down among the turkeys. Gary is as sick as a parrot, so Gordon calls in expert advice from the vet.

In this episode Gordon faces his biggest challenge yet with his ongoing campaign to get women back into the kitchen. Giles Corren is looking for love but is worried about his low sperm count and hopes a change in diet might help. Gordon cooks tagliatelle and venison with chocolate: 'Bambi never tasted so good.' He also travels to Scotland to try the rare and unusual delicacy of Gannet.

Can food affect a man's fertility? Currently there's speculation about a general decline in the sperm count and whether it can be linked to diet. Gordon Ramsay goes one step further in tonight's edition of the food magazine series.
